PJ may be staying at WMU after all. All the plum jobs may be filled before the Cotton Bowl is over.

He definitely does things his own way and this looks to be no different. While I don't know what all is going on behind closed doors there is something refreshing about him not jumping on the first offer put on his desk. Question is: if Western has a say decent 8-4 or 9-3 but non championship season next year will he still be a hot commodity? I think he will still have suitors with that kind of record. Western will definitely give Wisconsin all they can handle in the Cotton Bowl.

With Texas, Oregon, and Baylor filled are there really any other big ticket jobs still out there? I know Houston is nothing to sneeze at but it's not a high P5 job.

Two Questions on this:

1) Why will WMU give Wisconsin all they can handle? Sort of playing Devil's Advocate here. I know I want them to beat Wisconsin, but I wonder about that.

2) As for jobs left, you mention Houston. How would you rank Houston vs UC, vs USF? The UC program before Tommy T was probably among the best in the "non-P5".

Wisconsin-WMU will be interesting to watch. Good for WMU if they can hang..good for the MAC.

I don't know much at all about Wisconsin except that they have recently had huge, bulldozer offensive lines.

Wisconsin is still Wisconsin. Loaded up front with a power run scheme. Two great tailbacks with Clement being the featured back this season. Big guy who's physical and patient. I look for them to run right at WMU and pound the ball down their throats.
Defensively they're pretty good too, unless it's the second half against Penn State while they have a 21 point lead.... all jokes aside, TJ Watt looks and plays like his older brother and will surely be double teamed all night long.

I assume it's either a blow out for Wisconsin, or an upset by WMU. I think it has to be one or the other.
